Emmy Award-winning actor Donald Sutherland narrates

"Bill Parcells is a life changer" -- Curtis Martin

Much has been written and said about the legendary Bill Parcells, but now NFL Network delivers Parcells in his own words as he reflects on important moments in his career and life.

NFL Films-produced "Bill Parcells: Reflections on a Life in Football" debuts on NFL Network Friday, Nov. 19 at 8 p.m. ET following the Chicago Bears vs. Miami Dolphins Thursday Night Football game on Nov. 18. The 90-minute documentary features sit down interviews with Parcells, a visit to his house and rare footage from practices, meetings, games and time away from the football field.

"Bill Parcells is the Jock Whisperer," said Steve Sabol, president of NFL Films. "He can wound a player with one word then rebuild his image with the next. NFL Films wired Coach Parcells 18 times during his career in games, meetings and practices. We captured many of those intimate moments between Bill and his players."

In addition to hearing directly from Parcells, other people in his life, including his former high school basketball coach, former players Phil Simms and Curtis Martin, NFL executives, as well as a unique story about a homeless man who Parcells' befriended and helped get off the streets, all tell stories about the coach.

NFL Films was given unique access to Parcells as they were able to visit his home office and talk to him about some of the mementos he has kept from his career. Viewers will see the unique gifts he has been given by people whom he has worked with and players who played for him.

Parcells also reflects on memorable moments and gives viewers an inside perspective on his thoughts and the poem that helps guide his life.
